  • How General Practice can support International Medical Graduates
    Feb 26 2025
    Doctors Lisa and Sara were delighted to interview Dr Sylvia Kama-Kieghe, a GP based in Sheffield with an interest in Women’s Health. She is the Chair of the Royal College of General Practice North of England International Medical Graduates Group. We start with what the group does, why it was set up and look at issues International Medical Graduates might face when working and training in the UK. We consider what practices, staff and supervisors can do to help make International Medical Graduates feel welcome and supported so that the experiences for all can be positive. A useful listen for all working in Primary Care and specifically those new to Practice in the UK and to Educational and Clinical GP Supervisors.

  • Tips from an International Medical Graduate about joining General Practice
    Feb 5 2025
    For the podcast this week we spoke to Dr Abid Ali Khan, a GP trainee in East London currently on a Clinical Fellowship in Leadership (National Medical Directors Clinical Fellow). We focused on his experiences as an International Medical Graduate to gain an understanding of the challenges he faced coming to the UK. We got his advice for other International Medical Graduates and those supporting IMGs. We have a second episode out next month focusing more on what practices and staff can do to help support International Medical Graduates. A useful listen for all working in Primary Care and specifically those new to Practice in the UK and to Educational and Clinical GP Supervisors.

    Doctors Lisa and Sara talk to Hepatitis C GP Champion Dr Lindsey Kent and Greater Manchester Peer Programme Manager Tony Horrocks for an overview of Hepatitis C. We cover the basics around the virus and prevalence, potential symptoms and at risk groups to consider when offering testing.
